It's also possible that people are getting tested at the onset of symptoms instead of waiting until they need to call Hatzalah.
We still have the OP question, I haven't heard of anyone having symptoms recently. While what I hear is only anecdotal, the fact that no one on DDF and no one I spoke to heard of anyone either is very telling.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

My neighbor said he knows of 16 people who tested positive after Pesach. I don't know any more details. Just putting it out there.

Hatzolo has had new covid calls recently.  I don't know when these people were infected, but there's a small second wave.  Most likely from the vulnerable getting tired of quarantine and 'jealous' of everyone who's stopped self-quarantining.
We have to sympathize with, help out, and encourage those who still need to stay quarantined. (But the rest of us don't need to stay quarantined in solidarity.)

I know plenty of people who tested positive after pesach, but all of them had symptoms earlier and/or have antibodies.

Unless you know for a fact these people are from the vulnerable population then you can’t say that. Many people <65 have been really ill or R”L worse... including many in their 30s-50s who were otherwise generally healthy.

Where is this? BP?

There is truth to what you’re saying about the people who need to be the most careful being jealous of others.

BP
I have no specific knowledge, but I got the impression it was the typically hard hit covid patient.  Older, heavier, other medical problems.

I voted yes to the poll (in US outside tristate). However, it's an unfair poll to begin with since I know many many who have had it before Pesach and literally one who has had a mild case after Pesach.

2194. Additional 30 cases since yesterday
2205. Additional 11 cases. Consistently low rolling average.

Possibly due to lower testing being done now.

Is there less testing being done?

No. Not enough to account for the numbers.

Went today to get everyone tested and was given a hard time. Urgent care said as of two days ago they are only doing antibody testing so as to minimize the positives. If you have a valid reason they will test but are discouraging it very strongly.

I know 2 people who were told the same this week, they used to test for both at the same time but now they don’t

So in other words, we should expect NJ's numbers to start dropping next week and we shouldn't read too much into it?

They have been dropping sharply for a few weeks already

No, the chart posted above by @Yard sale show the numbers were already falling as testing was increasing, and even as they’re slowing testing the positives are clearly falling at a greater pace. It’s interesting because it’s clear that continuous mass testing is needed to keep the numbers down, so why is testing declining so much?

No. I went with five people and they didn't want to test us.
